    AR 15 where do i start?

    Looking into casting for my AR 15 it has a 1:9 twist . Looking for info/advice on boolit design ,lubes,coatings, gas checks and loads for reliable cycling. I know its a broad question but im just looking for a starting point so i dont waste a lot of time energy and $$$$ on the project!

    well your gonna waste a lot of time, energy, and some $$$$ on this project.
    that's how it works.
    do a search on the subject you should be able to read how I and others do it and we can avoid the whole the boolits are spinning too fast argument, and get you into working on what you want.

    It is spread throughout the cast boolits site so you have to look pretty much everywhere for it.
